What must it feel like to grow up knowing your mother walked out the door when you were just three years old and never came back? After Nicole Palsa heard her great-grandmother's heartbreaking story, she spent the next twenty years searching for answers. Nicole's great-great-grandmother, Dessie Dulaney, disappeared from Virginia around 1914, leaving behind a little girl, a grieving family, and a silence that lasted generations. When a single DNA match arrived the Friday before Mother's Day 2018, everything changed. And what Nicole uncovered was far more complicated, tragic, and surprisingly triumphant than anyone expected. From the Blue Ridge Mountains of Floyd County, Virginia to a small Illinois village where people still remembered Dessie's name, this is a story about the secrets women kept to survive, the daughters left behind, and what it means to finally find someone your family spent a century trying — and failing — to forget.〰️

Is the Mothman a harbinger of doom, or simply a predator of the Appalachian woods? In this episode of Spooky Appalachia, we examine two incredible accounts from hunters and fishermen who came face-to-face with a winged nightmare.First, we travel to Floyd County, Virginia, on Thanksgiving morning, 2019. A turkey hunter's successful shot is interrupted by a bone-chilling screech and the sight of a 7-foot-tall creature perched in the skeletal branches of an oak tree. With glowing amber-red eyes and a massive wingspan, this entity seemed to be stalking the same woods as the hunter—leaving him to wonder if the encounter was a warning of the global lockdowns that were soon to follow.Then, we look back at a chilling 1970s encounter near Addison, West Virginia. A local fisherman named Reece followed a haunting wail from the Ohio River to a place called Brian's Run, only to find a "breathing ball of brush" that transformed into a tall, dark humanoid. This story takes an even darker turn when Reece returns to find his boat burned to ashes and a mysterious Man in Black visiting his home, forcing his family to flee the state forever.Key highlights from this episode:The terrifying physical description of a modern-day Mothman sighting.The connection between cryptid sightings and the mysterious Men in Black.Why these entities seem drawn to outdoorsmen in remote areas.Do you have a story from the woods?

Please use care deciding when or whether to listen.In this episode of Kentucky History & Haunts, we travel back to 1970s Floyd County to uncover the high-profile—but surprisingly underreported—murder of Prestonsburg Mayor Dr. George P. Archer.Born into a prominent Eastern Kentucky family of doctors and civic leaders, Archer carried on a legacy of medicine, public service, and political influence. From expanding healthcare access in rural communities to transforming Prestonsburg's infrastructure and serving as mayor, Archer's career was full of ambition and impact.But his story came to a shocking and violent end on the night of July 12, 1973, when he was gunned down outside his medical clinic. The crime, committed in a well-lit, public space across from a drive-in theatre, stunned the small community. Despite early leads—including a suspiciously similar revolver attack on Archer's home earlier that year, eyewitness accounts of a fleeing Buick LeSabre, and questions directed toward those close to him—the case was never solved.Along the way, we'll also trace Archer's deep ties to Prestonsburg's most powerful families, his clashes with the United Mine Workers Association, his role in reshaping healthcare access in Eastern Kentucky, and the political pressures of leading a coal town during a time of economic and social change.This is the story of a man who seemed untouchable—until he wasn't.Southern Bell Data Phone Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QsqHBzW6gS0&t=1sTo reach Jessie, email kyhistoryhaunts@gmail.comSend a postcard to:Jessie Bartholomew9115 Leesgate Rd, Suite ALouisville, KY 40222

Have you ever wondered how a tale of gorillas can touch upon the deepest themes of our human experience? Newbery Award-winning author Katherine Applegate joins us to unwrap the layers of  The One and Only Family, her latest book that sees the beloved Ivan navigating the unpredictable waters of fatherhood. As Ivan's story unfolds with the birth of twins, we delve into the heart of freedom, the wild, and the impact of climate change, all while savoring the humor of gorilla toddlers and witnessing a father's growth. Katherine's enchanting blend of inspiration from the real Ivan's life and creative "what-ifs" showcases the profound freedom found in storytelling. The conversation then takes a turn towards the serious issue of book challenges, recoiling from the sting of censorship to the embrace of community and dialogue. Listen as Katherine shares the recent bittersweet journey of  Wishtree, a book about welcoming  that faced adversity through a book challenge in Virginia, yet found a silver lining through the solidarity of readers and advocates. Together with Katherine, we examine the role of literature in braving the choppy seas of censorship, and celebrate the unsung heroes like PEN America, VAASL, ALA, and librarian, writer, and book ambassador  John Schu, who champion the power of storytelling and the discovery of that life-altering narrative.

On this week's program, we're talking Regional Climate Action Planning with Sumedha Rao and Gianna Bennett from the Metro Louisville Mayor's Office of Sustainability (http://louisvilleky.gov/sustainability). The Office of Sustainability is currently conducting a Regional Climate Action Plan Survey to collect information on residents' climate and sustainability priorities. This work is funded by an EPA Climate Pollution Reduction Grant, and residents within our Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) can participate in the survey. That includes the following 11 counties: In Kentucky: Louisville/Jefferson County, Bullitt County, Oldham County, Shelby County, Spencer County, Henry County, and Trimble County; In Indiana: Clark County, Floyd County, Harrison County, and Washington County. Responses before January 31 are eligible to enter a raffle and win some sustainable swag! Take the survey now at https://louisville.az1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_dmYa3jp8EKAZU3A This work is funded by a U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Climate Pollution Reduction Grant and will be used by the Office to update and improve Louisville's climate action plans. Louisville Metro Government has received a grant from the EPA to create an updated Climate Action Plan for the region. This work builds on past and ongoing community-engaged efforts, including the Louisville Metro Greenhouse Gas Emissions Reduction Plan and similar plans from other regions. It is also in support of the priorities outlined in A Path Forward for Louisville (https://apathforward4lou.org/). This Climate Action Plan aims to reduce emissions and position this region for larger EPA grants. The goals are to: 1. Implement actions to reduce major greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 and beyond; 2. Pursue actions to achieve community benefits in low-income areas and areas that experience most environmental harms; 3. Pursue effective policies and programs that can be “scaled up” across other areas and initiatives. This 5-10 minute survey will tell us what work we should prioritize. As always, our feature is followed by your community action calendar for the week, so get your calendars out and get ready to take action for sustainability NOW! Sustainability Now! is hosted by Dr. Justin Mog and airs on Forward Radio, 106.5fm, WFMP-LP Louisville, every Monday at 6pm and repeats Tuesdays at 12am and 10am.

On September 28, 2000, former Indiana State trooper David Camm returned to his Floyd County, Indiana home to find his wife and children murdered. After three trials and thirteen years in prison, he was acquitted. Camm's case remains known as one of the most egregious wrongful convictions in Indiana's recent history. So what did happen to the Camm family? Why did investigators hone in on Camm despite the fact a violent felon's DNA was found at the murder scene? What was the real story of all the blood evidence used to arrest and convict Camm?Retired Federal Bureau of Investigation agent Gary Dunn was kind enough to share with us a copy of the probable cause affidavit in Camm's case. Dunn investigated Camm's case for the defense, and chronicled his experience in the book Their Bloody Lies and Persecution of David Camm: Part One. It's a great book that delves deeply into the crime. He is working on part two.In this episode, we will go through the entire PCA with Gary, and he will explain the weaknesses and fabrications in the case.By Gary's detailed book on the case: Their Bloody Lies and Persecution of David CammAlso, check out Gary's website on the case, to read the first chapter for free: https://www.theirbloodylies.com/A report from the News and Tribune on the day of the Camm family murders: https://www.newsandtribune.com/news/local_news/normal-day-ended-in-murder-for-camm-family/article_27335bd2-cdaf-5cfc-bb31-e104409b464d.htmlA WAVE report on the 2006 trial: https://www.wave3.com/story/4488420/february-9-2006-day-24-pieces-to-the-puzzle/A WAVE report on the 2006 conviction: https://www.wave3.com/story/4600249/camm-jurors-say-they-were-swayed-by-medical-evidence/A News and Tribune report on the case: https://www.newsandtribune.com/news/local_news/judge-drops-conspiracy-charge-against-david-camm/article_30761d6b-85e4-5d1f-86c2-750c089e9b0c.htmlA post from Officer.com on the Camm case: https://www.officer.com/home/article/10250471/murder-on-lockhart-roadA WDRB report on Donald Forrester's role in the Camm case: https://www.wdrb.com/news/david-camm-blog-jailhouse-informants/article_23d3b6e8-8a19-5cba-98e3-1aecaa2c410f.htmlA report from WAVE on the third and final trial in the Camm case: https://www.wave3.com/story/23652064/camm-trial-109-prosecutors-smack-touch-dna-favorable-to-camm-as-unreliable/A WAVE report on calls relevant to the Camm case: https://www.wave3.com/story/23394189/camm-trial-827-camm-called-investigator-wifes-employer-before-arrest/A WDRB report on Janice Renn's testimony: https://www.wdrb.com/news/david-camm-blog-janice-renn-testifies/article_9f6128c6-d70d-5bbe-971e-8b86c87f545c.htmlAnother book by John Glatt on the case: One Deadly Night: A State Trooper, Triple Homicide, and a Search for JusticeThe Murder Sheet participates in the Amazon Associate program and earns money from qualifying purchases.Send tips to murdersheet@gmail.com.The Murder Sheet is a production of Mystery Sheet LLC .See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

They will also discuss issuing death certificates, handling personal belongings, and locating next of kin. The event happened on September 20, 2023, at 8 a.m. at Hiram High School in Georgia............This from Newsbreak    Why Sports Physicals Are So Important for Student Health:  Georgia students gearing up for the new school year should remember the importance of sports physicals, mandated by Georgia law for student athletes. These exams, known as preparticipation physical evaluations (PPEs), ensure it's safe for students to engage in sports and can uncover health issues that might affect performance or safety. It's advisable to schedule PPEs at least six weeks before the sports season begins to allow time for further tests or treatment if needed. During a PPE, a physician examines medical history, conducts a physical tailored to the sport, and checks for underlying conditions. It's crucial not only for eligibility but for athletes' overall health and safety. CareSource offers sports physicals through its mobile unit, Wellness on Wheels, in various locations throughout September. However, sports physicals should not replace a child's annual well visit, which provides a more comprehensive view of their overall health, including immunizations and developmental milestones............This from Georgia Trend Daily       Weather:    This weekend we are going to stay in the Low 80's and in the high 70's and the lows are going to be in the low 60s and high 50s.

Paine was assisting a 63-year-old woman with a flat tire on Cardell Road when another driver collided with her car, throwing him 20 feet into a ditch. He suffered head injuries requiring staples, a collapsed lung, and swelling in his right leg. Paine, who is self-employed, faces at least a 4-week recovery period without income and maybe longer. He expressed concerns about speeding on Cardell Road, inadequate street lighting, and mailbox damage. Cobb County authorities have initiated a traffic study in response to the incident. A GoFundMe campaign has been set up to help with Paine's medical bills, and the condition of the injured woman, Deborah Wright, remains unknown. The driver responsible for the hit-and-run, Anthony Sarfo, is in Cobb County Jail, facing multiple charges.............This from Fox 5  This just proves that anything can happen on the road even if you are not in a vehicle.

Nex time you take a curve too fast in Paulding County it could be an Animal or a person.    Sports:  From the Paulding Sports Chronicles  Most of Paulding County was on a bye week and only one team in the county played.   South Paulding fell to Newnan 15-21  But in other news Hiram is ranked #5 in the 5A division in the state!    Weird news:  Amazon driver attacked by venomous rattlesnake while making delivery in Florida:  An Amazon delivery driver in Florida is in serious condition after being bitten by a rattlesnake while delivering a package. The incident occurred when the driver placed a box by the front door of a home, and an eastern diamondback snake leaped out and bit her. She quickly fell ill and called for assistance. She was subsequently hospitalized and was reported to be in "very serious" condition. The snake responsible for the bite was captured and euthanized. Eastern diamondback rattlesnakes are common in the Southeastern United States and are the largest rattlesnake species, with a bite that can be fatal in 10% to 20% of cases if left untreated. Martin County, where the incident occurred, is located on Florida's Atlantic coast, just north of Palm Beach. The driver's name and age were not disclosed in the report............This from Fox 5  Please be careful around snakes. As it starts to get cold, they will try to find warmer places to lie.

I showed them his diabetes bag and they approved it but then I showed them a bag of literally mainly WATER BOTTLES !!!! …just mainly water and there was a snack shoved in there and a Diet Coke ….but mostly the whole thing was water bottles with water in them !!!!!!! I told them he's diabetic and has to have this stuff and they made me take it back to my car !!! I can't even !!!!!!!!!! Diabetics have to have water!… and I'm not waiting in line for any water or snacks at that fair!”  These are your responses from actual Paulding county citizens - as reported on Whats Happening Paulding County  Tina Contois from Dallas “My son is T1D for 24 years now. Yes we had bags checked and things mentioned, but I never backed down. I took everything we needed with us wherever we went no matter what they said.  Peanut butter crackers, juice boxes, bottled water went everywhere we went.”  Tera Pae from Dallas “Go to DT get a makeup bag and get a Cricut and print out Diabetes Medical Bag on it and add snacks and water. They will leave it alone.”  Stephanie Brady from Dallas “My sons type 1……I could see them saying no to the drinks but I would absolutely be taking in snacks for a low. You don't have time to wait in line when there's an urgent fast low coming on. I will also lie and say he has food allergies he can only eat what I packed “  Brenda Thomas from Hiram “Maybe that would be some good feed back to the higher up.

The Creekside Towers development, located off South Cobb Drive, plans to increase the unit count from 200 to 295. While the building's height would remain the same, the space for amenities would be reduced, and additional underground parking would be included. The city planning staff and planning commission have recommended approval of the application. If approved, construction is set to begin in winter, and the tower would consist of various unit types. The developer has also pledged to reserve four units at reduced rates for city first responders.     Story 3: council   The City Council is set to vote on appointing Kathy Young to represent Ward 7 for the remainder of 2023. The vacancy in Ward 7 was created when Lewis Wheaton resigned after moving out of his ward. Mayor Derek Norton and council members have expressed support for Young's appointment. Young, a part-time college and career adviser at Campbell High School, has a background in economic development and civic involvement. The city charter mandates the filling of the vacancy, and the process for a special election was discussed but deemed impractical. Young's appointment will be determined in the upcoming council meeting.   We'll be right back   Break:   ESOG– Dayco - Elon   STORY 4: seniors   The nonprofit Senior Citizen Council of Cobb County organized the Free Resources for Seniors Expo at the Acworth Community Center.

However, many skeptical individuals believe there are deeper reasons for McCoy's dismissal. McCoy had previously demonstrated exceptional performance as manager of the county's landfill and had gained respect from state officials and county employees. However, an incident in 2018 involving County Commissioner John Hayes and McCoy during an educational field trip resulted in controversy. McCoy filed a lawsuit against the county, claiming a hostile work environment, which was settled out of court. Other incidents involving the commissioners' actions and expenses have also emerged. These incidents have led to speculation about the true reasons behind McCoy's dismissal. Attorney General Chris Carr's office has asked for an explanation from the County Attorney, and is looking closer at this case.   Story 6: cannabis   Trulieve Cannabis Corp., a medical cannabis dispensary, has introduced fast-acting nasal spray products to its lineup. The nasal spray allows for quick absorption of low-THC cannabis into the bloodstream, making it beneficial for patients with epilepsy and severe Parkinson's disease.

The spray comes in various sizes and prices, ranging from $35 to $120. Trulieve's Marietta location has seen steady business since opening, with customers expressing relief from using their products.
